Applications
Okoguard Shielded-Okolon power cables are recommended for use as feeder circuits in
utility generating plants, in distribution applications and for primary circuits. Type
MV cables may be installed in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors (exposed to
sunlight), in any raceway or underground duct, directly buried if installed in a system
with a grounding conductor in close proximity that conforms with NEC Section
310.7, or
messenger supported in industrial establishments and electric utilities. Sizes 1/0 AWG and
larger may also be installed in cable tray.
